The inner circumferential side of gas discharge outlet 40 is chamfered throughout complete cycle, and the aperture of gas discharge outlet 40 is expanded from upstream toward downstream Exhibition.On the section of the axis L comprising gas flow path 41, the chamfered portion of each gas discharge outlet 40 includes:From the end of upstream side Downstream side goes the axis L relative to gas flow path 41 to be at an angle of θ 1, is herein 45 ° of inclined straight line portions 42 in portion;From straight line 42 end of downstream side of part goes and outward with lower surface (opposite face) the 300 continuous curved portion 43 opposite with pedestal 2.It should Curved portion 43 is configured to the curve for the size that radius of curvature is 1mm.That is, gas discharge outlet 40 is in gas discharge outlet 40 and gas The mode that the boundary of body flow path 41 forms the corner of boundary portion Pa in inner peripheral surface is bent outward, from the ratio side of gas discharge outlet 40 The lower surface 300 of the position of the corner downstream of portion of boundary Pa to electrode plate 32B are formed as flexure plane.Wherein, 300 table of lower surface Show the planar portions of the boundary portion Pb of the end of the ratio flexure plane of gas discharge outlet 40 in the outer part.
The entire surface of the electrode plate 32B of inner peripheral surface comprising upper-part 32A, gas flow path 41 and gas discharge outlet 40, Such as anodized is carried out, the entire surface of nozzle 30 is covered by hard alumite 30A.Moreover, opening in electrode plate 32B The face side that mouth has gas discharge outlet 40 carries out forming yttrium oxide (Y2O3), yttrium fluoride (YF3) or aluminium oxide (Al2O3) etc. The processing of the sputtered films of bismuth of protective film.As shown in figure 3, coating apparatus includes such as plasma spraying rifle for blowing attached depositing materials 50 Wait spraying platings portion 5.It is vertical with the lower surface 300 of electrode plate 32B with the discharge direction of depositing materials 50 when forming sputtered films of bismuth 6 Mode is fixed.
Moreover, as shown in figure 3, blow attached depositing materials 50 from spraying plating portion 5 to the lower surface 300 of electrode plate 32B, make spraying plating portion 5 move in parallel to the direction orthogonal with the extending direction of gas flow path 41, and sputtered films of bismuth 6 is formed in each gas discharge outlet 40.Such as The upper gas discharge outlet 40 is for example set as 45 ° in the straight line portion 42 of above-mentioned section upper edge inner wall with axis L angulations. Moreover, gas discharge outlet 40 is in a manner that the boundary portion Pa in gas discharge outlet 40 and gas flow path 41 is in inner peripheral surface formation corner It bends outward, the 300 position flexure plane of lower surface in the downstream side of the straight line portion 42 of gas discharge outlet 40 to electrode plate 32B Connection.
When the axis L to such gas discharge outlet 40 and gas flow path 41 parallelly blows attached depositing materials 50, such as Fig. 4 Shown, the angle [alpha] between the inner surface for blowing attached angle and gas discharge outlet 40 of depositing materials 50 is 45 °.
In contrast, it is bent, makes from gas discharge outlet 40 and gas in the lateral circle surface for making gas discharge outlet 40 as shown in Figure 5 The lower surface 300 of boudary portion (upstream side end of gas discharge outlet 40) to the electrode plate 32B of flow path 41 are formed as flexure plane In the case of, near the upstream end of gas discharge outlet 40, depositing materials 50 blow the interior of attached angle and gas discharge outlet 40 Angle [alpha] between surface is less than 45 °.
Therefore, parallelly the face of the processing space side of electrode plate 32B is blown with the axis L of gas flow path 41 as shown in Figure 3 During attached depositing materials 50, in gas discharge outlet 40 shown in Fig. 5 shown in embodiment as be described hereinafter, in the upper of gas discharge outlet 40 The region of side is swum, depositing materials 50 blow attached angle [alpha] to the inner peripheral surface of gas discharge outlet 40 and become smaller.Therefore, in gas discharge outlet 40 upstream side, the film thickness of sputtered films of bismuth 6 are thinning.
In contrast, in gas discharge outlet 40 shown in Fig. 4, depositing materials 50 are blown with 45 ° of angle is attached to gas The inner peripheral surface of outlet 40.Therefore, in the upstream side end of gas discharge outlet 40, also with the spraying plating with being formed in lower surface 300 The equal film thickness film forming of film 6.Therefore, as shown in fig. 6, the inner surface in gas discharge outlet 40 is formed uniformly sputtered films of bismuth 6.Separately Outside, from the corner of gas discharge outlet 40 and the boundary portion Pa of gas flow path 41 to the following table of gas discharge outlet 40 and electrode plate 32B The horizontal distance S1 of the boundary portion Pb in face 300 is formed as below 1mm.
In addition, the horizontal distance S1 between boundary portion Pb and boundary portion Pa is preferably set to 0.5~1mm.Therefore, will under In the case that trip side end is connected with the lower surface 300 of electrode plate 32B with flexure plane, inner wall and the axis L of gas discharge outlet 40 Angulation θ 1 is preferably set to 45~50 °.
It is formed with the electrode plate 32B of sputtered films of bismuth 6 like this, after being engaged with upper-part 32A, with above-mentioned processing gas Supply pipe 33 connects and is set to process container 10, and connect with earthing potential.The electrode plate 32B of nozzle 30 and lower part as a result, Electrode 21 forms a pair of parallel plate electrode together.
Then, the effect of plasma processing unit is for example illustrated by taking etching process as an example.At plasma When managing device and starting, as by the glass substrate G of processing substrate by the synergistic effect of external conveying arm and lifter pin 24 and It is placed into substrate mounting surface 21A.Then, it after closing gate valve 12, is supplied between substrate mounting surface 21A and glass substrate G Heat-conducting gas and apply DC voltage to electrostatic attraction electrode plate 23, absorption keeps glass substrate G.
Then, such as CF will be included4The processing gas of etching gas is waited to be supplied to process container 10 from gas supply part 3 It is interior, it is vacuum-evacuated from exhaust outlet 13 and the pressure in process container 10 is adjusted to defined pressure.Later, from high-frequency electrical The RF power of plasma generation is applied to 21 main body of lower electrode by source portion 25 via adaptation 26, in lower electrode 21 The electric field of high frequency is generated between nozzle 30.The processing gas being fed into process container 10, by lower electrode 21 and spray The electric field excitation of the high frequency generated between first 30 generates the plasma of processing gas.In addition, ion contained in plasma Attracted by lower electrode 21, to being etched by process film for glass substrate G.Later, the glass of etching process has been carried out Substrate G is moved out by external conveying arm from process container 10.
Like this when the excitation plasma in process container 10 in plasma processing apparatus, spray as shown in Figure 7 The face of first 30 processing space side and plasma P contacts.At this time in gas discharge outlet 40, the inner surface of gas discharge outlet 40 with Plasma contact, but gas flow path 41 narrows so plasma P is to gas flow path due to the internal diameter of the flow path 41b in downstream side The risk that 41 sides enter is small.It is covered moreover, gas discharge outlet 40 is plated film 6, so the hard of the lower layer side of sputtered films of bismuth 6 is acidproof The layer of aluminium 30A is protected against the influence of plasma P.
Then, because corona treatment is repeated, its film thickness due to consumption of sputtered films of bismuth 6 is slowly thinning.At this point, being formed In the case of the membrane thickness unevenness of the sputtered films of bismuth 6 of gas discharge outlet 40, at the thin position of the film thickness of sputtered films of bismuth 6, lower layer side The aluminium of the layer of hard alumite 30A or the base material as electrode plate 32B can locally expose.When the base material as electrode plate 32B When aluminium exposes, being abnormal electric discharge or because aluminium due in gas discharge outlet 40 leads to the generation of particle, so needing to carry out gas confession To the replacement and maintenance in portion 3.
The high uniformity of the film thickness of sputtered films of bismuth 6 of the nozzle 30 due to being formed in gas discharge outlet 40 as described above, so energy The part of the aluminium of lower layer side when corona treatment is repeated in enough inhibition caused by the thinning of sputtered films of bismuth 6 is exposed, so nozzle 30 service life is elongated, can extend the period of replacement and maintenance.
According to the 1st embodiment, for corona treatment, there is the electrode plate for being formed with multiple gas flow paths 41 In the gas supply device of 32B, the mode that corner is formed with the boundary portion Pa in gas flow path 41 and gas discharge outlet 40 is outside Lateral bending is rolled over, and is formed as flexure plane from the inner peripheral surface positioned at the outside in corner to lower surface 300.Therefore it is blown to gas discharge outlet 40 It blows the direction of attached depositing materials 50 during attached depositing materials 50 with the inner peripheral surface angulation of gas discharge outlet 40 to become larger, Neng Goufang The only filming of the near border of the upstream side of gas discharge outlet 50.
As a result, when gas supply part 3 forms sputtered films of bismuth 6, by blowing attached spraying plating material from the extending direction of gas flow path 41 Material 50 just can be formed uniformly sputtered films of bismuth 6 in gas discharge outlet 40, by make to blow the spraying plating portions 5 of attached depositing materials 50 to gas The orthogonal direction of the extending direction of body flow path 41 is mobile and changes the position for blowing attached depositing materials 50, can be in each gas discharge outlet 40 form uniform sputtered films of bismuth 6.
Therefore, sputtered films of bismuth film process become simple, and the depositing materials 50 for not needing to for example to adjust spraying plating portion 5 blow attached angle Spend and blown again in the thin part of sputtered films of bismuth 6 again the step of attached 50 grade complexity of depositing materials.
